In the clip shared on their Instagram pages, the couple – who tied the knot in 2018 – also renewed their wedding vows,

Since then, Hailey, 26, has proudly showed off her baby bump while attending events and traveling with her hubby.

This week, the two parents-to-be spent some time in Japan.

In a photo taken in Kiyamachi, Kyoto by a fan, Justin leaned down to kiss Hailey’s stomach.

REAL OR FAKED?
Once the photo went viral on a Hailey-themed Reddit forum, critics had some doubts.

“This is obviously such a planned picture- kissing the belly…in the middle of some street LMAO okay,” one fan pointed out.

A second replied, “And in the rain.”

“This is kind of embarrassing,” a third admitted.

A fourth asked, “who took the picture?”

Someone else responded to the above comment, “The paid fan or paparazzi.”

HAILEY SNAPS BACK
On Thursday, the Rhode Skin founder took part in a trend going around on social media.

Posted on her Instagram Stories, she reshared a video with a caption that read, “Imagine not liking me and I’m just at home doing this.”

Below, a clip of Remy the rat from the Disney movie Ratatouille was happily eating a piece of cheese and a strawberry.

She seemingly responded to the backlash from fans – including the “planned” baby bump pic and copying Justin’s crush Rihanna’s pregnancy looks.

COPY CAT
Since announcing her pregnancy, Hailey has been showing off her pregnancy style which includes comfortable clothing like wide-legged jeans, hoodies, and cropped T-shirts.

On Reddit, fans pointed out the major similarities between Hailey and the Shut Up and Drive hitmaker.

Rihanna shares two children: RZA and Riot with her boyfriend A$AP Rocky.

“She’s trying to be like Rihanna when Rihanna was pregnant. Only Rihanna can be Rihanna,” one pointed out.

A second said, “Ya’ll remember when she tried to copy riri during coachella lol, it was so bad.”

In April, Hailey fangirled over Rihanna’s taste in fashion on her Instagram Stories and captioned the post, “4eva the inspo.”
